Gilded bronze Buddha representing "Vaishravana". He is a guardian and wealthy deity popular in Tibet and China. The deity wears full armour and sits on a lion, which has almost the same dimensions, while holding what would be a spear in his right hand and a lion cub in the other. Both are on a lotus base with a Tibetan Buddhist symbol at the base.
